  <h3>Python authoring package and CLI launcher for Managed Deep Agents.</h3>

`managed-deepagents` is the PyPI package for authoring Managed Deep Agents in
Python. It includes:

- `define_deep_agent`, the Python authoring contract for managed agents.
- `define_schedule`, the Python contract for managed cron schedules.
- `mda`, the CLI used to build and deploy your agent to LangSmith.
- `managed_deepagents.runtime`, the runtime helper used by generated managed
  entry modules.

## Install

```bash
uv tool install managed-deepagents
```

> [!NOTE]
> **Private beta: dev releases only.** We currently publish only PEP 440
> pre-release (dev) versions and no stable version yet. uv skips pre-releases
> by default unless they are allowed explicitly:
>
> ```bash
> uv tool install --prerelease allow managed-deepagents
> ```

This package requires Python 3.9 or newer. Each platform wheel bundles the
prebuilt `mda` binary for its OS and CPU architecture and exposes it through the
`mda` console script. This PyPI-installed CLI scaffolds and compiles Python
projects only and vendors the Python runtime bundled with this wheel.

To start a new project:

```bash
mda init my-agent
cd my-agent
uv sync
```

`mda init` can shape the project up front — `--instructions "..."` (or
`--instructions-file <path>`) writes the system prompt, `--scope <boundary>`
declares who may call the deployment and how runs are isolated, `--model <spec>` picks the model, and
`--no-sandbox` / `--no-evals` leave parts out. Nothing prompts, so this is also
the command to hand a coding agent or a CI script rather than having it write a
project layout from memory.

`mda init my-agent --interactive` hands the build to the Deep Agent builder
instead, which interviews you in your terminal.

## Define an Agent

Create an `agent.py` that defines an `agent`:

```python
from managed_deepagents import define_deep_agent

# The system prompt comes from instructions.md next to this file.
agent = define_deep_agent(
    name="research-assistant",
    model="openai:gpt-5.5",
    tools=[query_db],
)
```

`define_deep_agent` requires a static `name` (LangGraph assistant id and default LangSmith deployment name) and otherwise accepts the [`create_deep_agent`](https://reference.langchain.com/python/deepagents/graph/create_deep_agent) keyword surface minus the managed keys: `backend`, `store`, `checkpointer`, `memory`, `skills`, and `system_prompt`. Those are provided by the managed runtime when your agent is deployed. Write the system prompt in `instructions.md` next to `agent.py`; the CLI embeds it at deploy time.

On deploy, Context Hub stores harness files (`instructions.md`, `skills/**`) plus a shared agent memory template in the deployment Hub repo. Identity memory is slice-based: the **agent** slice mounts at `/memories/agent/` from the deployment repo, and an optional **user** slice opens a **dedicated Hub repo per caller** (lazy-created) at `/memories/user/`. Hot memory (`/memories/agent/AGENTS.md` and/or `/memories/user/AGENTS.md`) is injected every turn for enabled slices. Deploy never overwrites existing memories.

## Project Shape

```text
my-agent/
  agent.py              # named `agent` variable
  instructions.md       # managed system prompt
  pyproject.toml
  .env                  # local deploy secrets, never committed
  schedules/            # optional managed cron schedules
  tools/                # optional custom tools
  middleware/           # optional middleware
  skills/               # optional skills synced to Context Hub
  sandbox/              # LangSmith sandbox (`mda init` includes this; delete to opt out)
  connectors/mcp.py     # optional MCP server declaration
```

The CLI copies your project files into the managed build and generates the entry
module that connects your definition to the hosted runtime.

The agent entry must live at the project root as `agent.py`.

## Define a Schedule

Create one file per schedule under `schedules/` and define a named `schedule`:

```python
# schedules/daily_digest.py
from managed_deepagents import define_schedule

schedule = define_schedule(
    cron="0 8 * * 1-5",
    timezone="America/Los_Angeles",
    prompt="Write the daily digest.",
)
```

`mda deploy` reconciles schedules as LangSmith cron jobs after the deployment is
live. Declarations must be statically serializable literals or top-level
constants; prompt schedules become user-message input, and stateless runs clean
up their temporary thread after completion.

## Sandbox

`mda init` scaffolds `sandbox/__init__.py` with a LangSmith sandbox. MDA only
enables the sandbox when that declaration is present — delete `sandbox/` to opt
out:

```python
from managed_deepagents import sandboxes

sandbox = sandboxes.langsmith(
    scope="thread",
    idle_ttl_seconds=600,
)
```

If `sandbox/setup.sh` exists, MDA embeds it and runs it once when the sandbox is
first provisioned. MDA owns sandbox naming, image/snapshot selection, reuse, and
lifecycle.

## MCP Connectors

Add `connectors/mcp.py` to attach MCP servers. The file must define a
module-level `connector`. By default, MDA exposes every tool loaded from each
declared server:

```python
from managed_deepagents import connectors

connector = connectors.mcp(
    mcp_servers={
        "langchainDocs": {
            "transport": "http",
            "url": "https://docs.langchain.com/mcp",
            "include_tools": ["search", "fetch"],
        },
    },
)
```

Use `include_tools` or `exclude_tools` inside a server config to select a
subset. Tool names are raw MCP tool names before the managed `{server}__` prefix
is applied, so `"include_tools": ["search"]` on server `langchainDocs` exposes
`langchainDocs__search` when prefixing is enabled.

## CLI

Create a new project:

```bash
mda init my-agent
```

Build locally:

```bash
mda build ./my-agent
```

Run on the local LangGraph dev server:

```bash
mda dev ./my-agent
```

`mda dev` requires `uv` on `PATH`, but it resolves the local LangGraph dev
server automatically; you do not need to install a global `langgraph` command.

Deploy to LangSmith:

```bash
mda deploy ./my-agent
```

The generated build is written to `<root>/.mda/build` by default.

Common deploy options:

```bash
mda deploy ./my-agent --name my-agent-dev --deployment-type dev
mda deploy ./my-agent --workspace-id "$LANGSMITH_WORKSPACE_ID"
mda deploy ./my-agent --no-wait
```

Read the deployed agent's server logs:

```bash
mda logs ./my-agent
mda logs ./my-agent --lines 200 --level error
mda logs ./my-agent > agent.log
```

In a terminal `mda logs` streams new output until you press Ctrl-C. When the
output is piped or redirected it prints the most recent lines (1000 by default)
and exits.

Tear it down again:

```bash
mda delete ./my-agent
```

`mda delete` (alias `mda destroy`) removes the LangSmith deployment, the tracing
project created alongside it, the deployment's Context Hub repo including the
per-user memory repos beneath it, and the managed sandboxes the
deployment created. It asks for confirmation first; pass `--yes` to skip the
prompt in scripts. Agent memory and thread history are not recoverable
afterwards.

Sandboxes are matched by name: the runtime names each one
`{deployment}--{digest}`, which also lets a restarted deployment re-adopt its
existing sandbox instead of stranding it. The digest covers the sandbox scope
plus how it was provisioned, so editing `setup.sh` or switching snapshots gives
the next run a fresh sandbox instead of one built from the previous recipe.
Sandboxes created before this behavior existed are unnamed and are left to
LangSmith's idle-stop and retention window.

Before deploying, make sure your model provider key such as `OPENAI_API_KEY`
or `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` is available in the project `.env`, the process
environment, or LangSmith workspace secrets. For LangSmith itself, set
`LANGSMITH_API_KEY` the same way, or run interactively and press Enter at the
prompt to sign in with your browser (the CLI creates a key and writes it to
`.env`). Use `LANGSMITH_WORKSPACE_ID` or
`--workspace-id` when your credentials require a workspace selection.
